>> Still, there was a significant population of Muslims when Twain was there. Certainly there were areas like he described. But that was far from the totality of the country. According the records of the Ottoman Empire, there were over a half a million Arabs around the start of WWI. There were less that 100k Jews.

I think Twain's (and others') point was that the land was a wasteland, substantially unoccupied, and that Arafat lied when he claimed, as he did, that there was some kind of "invasion".

You take this as far back as you want to but at no time did the Jews willingly give up the land other than what they gave to Egypt to make peace with it.

I would really like to know, if the Jews cannot have the land they built, what do you and other liberals expect they will do? They have done everything conceivable to try to bring this idiots to peace, and the Arabs won't hear of it. They believe the only good Jew is a dead one, and you and tejek are right in there with them.

The Arabs want the Jews dead; the Jews are going the extra mile to live in peace. There is some pretty serious moral righteousness in the actions of the Jews and Arabs can lay claim to NONE of it. They're murdering terrorists who are being given undeserved respect IMO. These are people who have no desire, whatsoever, to develop peace in that region, yet you and Tejek and the other liberals side with them.

It is one of the most illogical positions I've seen anyone take on this thread or elsewhere. The defiance of reason is really suggestive of downright racism.
